"Invictus" by William Ernest Henley

之前和朋友聊天,他发了一则诗过来勉励,觉得很激励人,所以就试着翻译了一下。

Invictus

    -by William Ernest Henley

不屈者

Out of the night that covers me,

无际的夜幕,

Black as the pit from pole to pole,

幽暗如深井遮盖住苍穹,

I thank whatever gods may be

而我感谢上苍

For my unconquerable soul.

赐予我无畏的灵魂。

In the fell clutch of circumstance

当每况愈下的时候

I have not winced nor cried aloud.

我不退缩也不哭喊。

Under the bludgeonings of chance

在命运的重击下

My head is bloody, but unbowed.

我纵使头破血流也不折腰。

Beyond this place of wrath and tears

在这片愤怒与泪水的土地之外

Looms but the Horror of the shade,

恐怖阴影交织,

And yet the menace of the years

尽管岁月威吓,

Finds, and shall find me, unafraid.

但我无所畏惧。

It matters not how strait the gate,

无论命运多舛,

How charged with punishments the scroll,

无论被判上何种罪罚,

I am the master of my fate:

我都主宰着我的命运:

I am the captain of my soul.

我都统领着我的灵魂。
